[Verse 1]
C
I know a guy that's got a lot to lose.
F
He's a pretty nice fellow but he's kind of confused.
C
He's got muscles in his head that ain't never been used.
G
Thinks he own half of this town.
C
Starts drinking heavy, gets a big red nose.
F
Beats his old lady with a rubber hose,
C
then he takes her out to dinner and buys her new clothes.
G C
That's the way that the world goes 'round.
[Chorus]
C
That's the way that the world goes 'round.
F
You're up one day and the next you're down.
C
It's half an inch of water and you think you're gonna drown.
G C
That's the way that the world goes 'round.
[Verse 2]
C
I was sitting in the bathtub counting my toes,
F
when the radiator broke, water all froze.
C
I got stuck in the ice without my clothes,
G
naked as the eyes of a clown.
C
I was crying ice cubes hoping I'd croak,
F
when the sun come through the window, the ice all broke.
C
I stood up and laughed thought it was a joke
G C
That's the way that the world goes 'round.

That's the way that the world goes 'round.
[Chorus]
